Establishments: TangySweet

Before catching a movie in Chinatown, (one I'd recommend actually, How to Train Your Dragon), had some time to stop at TangySweet.

Weather's getting perfect for frozen yogurt.

Establishments: Pitango Gelato

To cap off a wonderful excursion, decided to stop by Pitango Gelato.

Got a great combo of Pistachio & Chocolate (w/ chocolate chip).

Establishments: Jack's Cafe

Had the urge to do brunch in Old Town Alexandria. It was raining lightly, but not too bad to walk around. After we couldn't find the place we originally wanted to head to (or remember where it was), we were wandering and came upon another place that had come to our attention via Yelp, Jack's Cafe.

It was a very neat, intimate establishment.

Priced very moderately, pleasant people at the counter/grill, and delicious food, well at least it's breakfast fare.

I got french toast, egg, and bacon and had no complaints. Will definitely go back to check out the rest of the menu.

Establishments: Indique

Sam & I grabbed a bite to eat an Indique before heading to Montgomery College for a show. I'd never eaten there before, and they had limited balcony seating at tables for two.

The weather was perfect and the food was delicious.

Establishments: The Brown Bag

Grabbed a great sandwich at the Brown Bag on 14th st.

Not much else to say

Establishments: The Diner

There aren't too many places in DC that are open late night on a regular basis.

The Diner is one of them (it's actually open 24/7), and it's one of my faves.

It is also one of several establishments which make up quite a neat triumvirate, all with different atmospheres, depending on what you're in the mood for, and when.

The other two are Tryst (which is right up the street from it), and Open City.

Anyway, I ordered the mac & cheese with mixed greens on the side...well worth it.

Establishments: Firehook

On the way to the Dupont Farmers Market to grab a bite to eat for a light brunch, I actually stopped at Firehook to get some orange juice.

I've gotten more substantial items there...in fact, I think the past two times I got a soup and sandwich combo. Vegetarian Panini...and I forget what kind of soup.

Anyway, it's a neat little place, the people are nice. Definitely wondering why I'd never really gone there before. I think the first time was only this year.

Establishments: Kogibow

After patronizing L'enfant Cafe, Sam and I walked up to visit one of his friends (and pick up his bike), and on the way there, stopped by Kogibo for some bubble[boba] tea. But they're actually known for their cakes.

Mr. Manh opened his business back in 1993...wow, I was just finishing up my first year at STA.

So I got a pina colada flavored bubble tea...and it wasn't some premade/powder mix. There were genuine pineapple chunks and coconut flakes blended in.

Can't wait to try their cake
